Hello all,
I'm just a lowly wood burning Joe who has recently taken delivery of a large Ash tree, (thanks Erskine Tree Surgeons, Glasgow). Whilst I plan to season and burn the smaller stuff, I cannot bring myself to burn the large Ash Discs
I was thinking a table top (can you buy cast iron legs?) or a bench but that's as far as I got. Can you help please?
I'm no expert and only have basic tools! (chainsaw, electric planer, chop saw etc.)
Thanks, Cris

Hello,
I was hoping someone might be able to identify this tree please, I have a wee wood burner and the chance of a trailer load (windfall) but don't know if its any good for burning. It's quite heavy and seems like it would be okay once seasoned but I'm no expert!
Thanks,
Cris

Hi,
Looking for two cords worth of any size unseasoned unprocessed hardwood for personal use / stocking up for next winter.
Price should include delivery (Glasgow southside, easy access).
Call me on 0141 419 0899 (after 6pm) or PM.
Many thanks,
Cris

I like to use birch for kindling to get the fire going then its ash all the way. Loads of heat and splits easily. Oak and beech come a close second.
Never tried Hawthone or Holly but would like too. I've some cherry seasoning for this winter which I hear produces a nice smell.
I steer well clear of London Plane and Poplar!

I'm after some hardwood, preferably beech, birch, ash, syca, cherry ect in the Glasgow area if anybody has any...
Can take a tipper load in the driveway and process myself, anything up to three tonnes would be great. Will take any chippings too.
Can offer a small payment and coffee,
Thanks in advance,
Cris
